Kooyenga said he’ll watch the presidential debates to inform his decision on whom to support.
Editor’s note: Khizr Kahn gave this speech at last week’s Democratic National Convention.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a town hall event in Columbus, Ohio, Monday.
That family’s son was a captain in the U.S. Army and was killed while deployed in Iraq.
The Indiana governor told Fox News it takes time to build relationships in politics and that was exactly what Trump and Ryan were doing. Refusing to pass along his questionable endorsement to McCain is the least shitty thing Trump has done to the man, as you may recall he famously said “I like people who don’t get captured” of the former Vietnam prisoner of war and accepted war hero.
“If you are repeatedly having to say, in very strong terms, that what he has said is unacceptable, why are you still endorsing him?” “And I’m just not quite there yet”, Trump told the Post, offering praise for Ryan’s longshot opponent, Paul Nehlen, for running “a very good campaign”. Roday added that the Ryan team was “confident in a victory next week regardless”.
“I like Paul, but these are disgusting times for our country”, Trump said, according to the Post. I know she’s given me no support – zero support – and yet I’m leading her in the polls. I used to work as a beer cart girl on a golf course and once watched someone chug a beer, puke it up, chug more beer, then flip their golf cart, and that was a classier than this interview.
“At some point, he needs to explain to us, the citizens of Arizona and the country why. We don’t need weak people”.
Republican Muslim Coalition founder Saba Ahmed said her coalition was “a little disappointed by the way he reacted and his anti-Muslim comments”. Khizr Khan criticized Trump for his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the U.S.in a speech at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia last week. None did so publicly and aides to both Ryan and Ayotte made clear their plans hadn’t changed. Moreover, it seems that any criticism of Trump will be met with hatred from him and his supporters.
Some commentators suggest the Khans have received so much attention recently because their story had not been previously known or covered, while Smith had appeared on television news shows and her testimony before Congress received significant media attention since the Benghazi attack in 2012. “I’m not there right now”, said in May, before eventually backing Trump the following month.
Grassley also said he was proud to be “friends with a family of Muslim faith from Cedar Falls” whose son is an officer in the USA armed forces.
